Call your vet immediately. Do not wait for symptoms to arise. This medication can cause kidney failure when dogs ingest it. I know this because 2 days ago my dog ingested 3 sample sized tubes of it and is now in the veterinary hospital with renal failure. The vitamin D in the cream apparently causes the dogs calcium levels to rise dramatically and can cause damage to the kidneys and heart. Don't wait! The sooner the vet can treat your dog the better it's chances of averting danger. BTW My vet did not think this medication would have done much damage until he read the case file from poison control.

Can you put ointment on your dog after it got hit by a car?
"Ointment" is pretty vague. It's generally a bad idea to put topical treatments such as ointments on animals, because they don't know they aren't supposed to lick them off. Take your dog to a vet, then follow the vet's advice.

Is AD ointment ok for dogs?
I would definitely talk to your vet first, before you put a topical treatment on a dog. The ointment can be toxic, and if the dog licks it off, it could be harmful! Just give your vets office a call, and they will tell you over the phone, if it would be safe or not! The way I look at it, is it's always better to be safe than sorry!

My dog just did the same thing this morning. I called poison control and they told me that the zinc oxide isn't able to be digested and that she most likely will vomit. She did, 4 times! But now she is fine and the poison control person said there is nothing to worry about!
